lyrics

Like a dead dog on a highway
Like a dead dog I'm hanging around
Won't you stop and pick me up
Dig me a deep hole in the ground

Wrap me in white linnen
That your mother used to wear
On the day you were born
Once I was a baby, once I was a baby dog, too

Like a dead dog on a highway
And the big trucks passing by
Won't you put my little body down
Cover it with boulders out of light

Kiss away the dread and blood
And comb my fur and straighten the broken tail
It was dancing up and down
While I was going down the highway

Like a dead dog on a highway
Like a dead dog I'm hanging around
Won't you stop and pick me up
Dig me a deep hole in the ground

Wrap me in white linnen
That your mother used to wear
On the day you were born
Once I was a baby, once I was a baby dog, once I was a baby dog, too (wuff)

Like a dead dog on a highway
And the big trucks passing by
Won't you put my little body down
Cover it with boulders out of light

Wrap me in white linnen
That your mother used to wear
On the day you were born
I'm going down the highway
I'm going down the highway
Till I die, oh, till I die
